Molly Shannon.

So. Last night I went out with my friend to celebrate her birthday. And I’m in a bar, and some random guy slides over to me and says, “Did anyone ever tell you you look like Molly Shannon?”

Yeah. Every time I go to a bar! I am serious. I can’t even count how many times someone has told me I look JUST LIKE MOLLY SHANNON.

I like Molly Shannon; it’s not an insult or anything. But I don’t really *see* it — that I look like Molly Shannon.

So, tell me, all: do I look like Molly Shannon?

    Uhhh I’m gonna have to say no. I watch Kath & Kim every week (OMG I have to admit, that stupid show makes me giggle) so I’m looking at Molly on a weekly basis. And no you don’t remind me of her. Hmm.

    Maybe if I had drunk goggles on then you’d remind me of Molly Shannon? I’m blaming alcohol on those claims. LOL

    You look Megan Hart to me. Pretty purple (or blue) haired Megan Hart.

    One of a kind. :)

    No.

    I was going to say you look like Megan to me. So see, it’s just them. And the beers.

    You do kinda look like that Lauren Dane chick. *Kidding* Only because I know people confuse the two of you somehow.

    Maybe… a tiny bit? And I agree with Karen – likely the drunk goggles help. That and it gives a/the guy an opening/what he thinks is a clever line?

    I’m sorry, who is this Molly Shannon who claims to look like your incredibly good self?

    I do not know this person…. *grins* I think you look just like you, which is pretty damn good in my book.

    Hi Megan:

    Sorry, I don’t know who Molly Shannon is.

    I have you beat though, people chase me around supermarkets to ask for Margaret Atwood’s autograph. And, I am not a fan of Peggy. :lol:

    Best Regards

    Love Molly Shannon, but I don’t see it at all. You look like you. :-)

    I don’t really think you look a lot like Molly Shannon, but I have to agree with limecello that there might be a tiny bit of similarity enhanced by beer goggles and/or what the person thinks is a good line.

    I think it might be your smile? It’s not your hair (where are the bangs? Did someone chicken out? Hum???) or eye’s…but I think maybe your smile is similiar.

    Course it might also be me looking through sleepy eyes.

    :?:

    My first reaction to this question was “No.” But then as I was scrolling through and saw another picture of you with a full on smile- I kind of see the resemblance. Serious looking face Megan- NO- big smile Megan- yes-
    (imo only…)

    Oh yes, I see it! But the real proof is when you get nervous, do you put your hands… :lol: :lol:

    Geez, what a bunch of kissasses.

    :roll:

    Seriously, though, it’s not something you can see in a 2D photo or even your videos. It’s purely in the facial mannerisms, and you don’t look like her, SHE looks like YOU. :)

    In other words, I don’t see Molly Shannon when I’m with you, I see you when I’m watching Molly Shannon.

    Googled for Molly Shannon and there’s the vaguest most superficial resemblance but you have better bone structure and look more intelligent. :-*
